Two Quick MP Questions

[danmcl82]

1) In a future patch will there be a change so after we complete a turn in MP we are not kicked to the main menu screen? It gets annoying having to relogin after each turn.

2) In PZC1 There were a lot of mods and custom maps that let you play the entire war in 1 match (ex 1941). Will the Devs ever release an offical version of this type of map? It would be great to have a polished version of the 1941 mod.

Are you playing your own scenario, an out of the box scenario or a random one? I've now played 4 online games without ever getting kicked to the main menu....but there are definite problems with the custom scenario builder and the only problems I have experienced have been with self created ones. Have you and your opponent double checked firewall settings? It might be something other than the game, given I've played 4 games without any such crash.

We'll look into improving MP UI flow in the near future. As for grand scale maps, at this point I cannot say if it will happen or not.

I have only played 1 PBEM++ game & it was not setup as a 'Quick Play'.
The game followed the normal pattern, but the last 10 moves or so were played as if we were lanning the game...very fast response times & very impressive per the connection speed.
I suspect because my opponent stayed logged in.

Thanks for the reply.

It happens in every multiplayer match I have played. After I hit End Turn it logs me out and I am back on the main screen . I have to click multiplayer, and log back in to see my other matches.

Well, i have Problems with MP too... But i am not kicked , it just doesnt end turn if i click on the hourglass or pres Alt-E....

After you end your turn and the other player is not online and joined the round - you get back to main screen.
IF both are online and joined the game you can play turn by turn without kick.

Improvments: MAke little green red icon near the sideicons so players can see if on or offline.

I got question aswell.

If you load a MP game after the other player made his turn you cant see the movment that player made (custommultiplyer map)
Is that regulary like that or do i have to script something in lua to show/see/save the movments that player made?

I have a silly question :

What "View" does mean?. The game is over?

[Owi]

it is a old finished game. Last patch brought up the old games so you need to rehide them.
